Allow user to enter null parameter?

Post Author: dmcheng
CA Forum: General
Hello. I'm using CRXI R2. I have set some parameters on a report that are optional for the user, i.e. she do not have to enter values for these fields. However, when the user runs the report, the parameter prompt window requires an entry for these fields. Is there any way around this? I've searched for an "Allow Null" option but haven't found it. ThanksDavid

Hi sateesh,
Take one more field in your Ztable let say, counter. Initally it will be empty.,
Once the user is answering security question.
if he answered wrong add one to counter and update counter to zTable. ,
So if the user answers wrong answer for 3 times .,
You dispaly a message " Limit Exceeded " ... some thing like that.,
and disable the answer input field.
hope this helps u.,
revert back fr further clarifications,
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran

Allowing user to enter new member in a dimension

I would like to know if it is possible to use forms to enter newmember in a dimension (for example a new project in the 'project'dimension). Currently we have created dummy project beforehand...But I have seen that the workforce allows users to enter anew 'employee' using a form... I believe it must create a newmember in the dimension ?

I am not sure to understand exactly how you are working...If you create three dummy project for every branch / sales area,does that means that actual project are consolidated in thoseproject? Then do you use the workflow feature? For example, how canyou approve or reject a high probability project code that wouldsum up several kind of project... In my opinion, it's necessary to work on 'single' and identifiedproject. In my company we have to be SOX compliant. I am quite surehaving a budget on 'unidentified' project is not really SOXcompliant... "It is better not to allow the users to edit thedimensions.It will create problems."I certainly do not want to give them administration rights norto much possibilité. But I am just willing to let themcreate new zero level member on their department... I believethat's what Hyperion has done in the Workforce Planning module. Isthere anybody who can confirm that? How do they have done that?

How to allow, user to enter the free text in smart forms and Drop Down list

Hi Experts,
How to provide the user to enter text in smart forms? ie Once the smartform generated, there the user allowed to enter text.
And also is there any option to provide Dropdown list in smart forms.
Possible give with example with clear idea.
Its very urgent!!!!
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi!
No, there's no way to it, because Smartform is just like a piece of paper, it can't handle any objects, after it is ready.
It can be printed out/archived/sent on email as an attachment and that's all. It cannot be modified after it is completed.

How To Allow User To Enter "$" In A Number Field

I have a form that includes various numeric fields in which the user should enter dollar values. It works fine if the user enters a number WITHOUT a dollar sign. Suppose the user enters "1234", the field will display "$1,234.00", which is exactly what I want. However, if the user decides to change the value, clicks on the field, and replaces the "00" with "56" then when they leave the field it will display "$0.00". I've figured out this is because they left the dollar sign in the field when editing.
So, how can I fix the validation or other settings so that someone could enter "$1234" and have it show "$1,234.00" instead of "$0.00"?
Thank you!
Mike

Hi MJD729,
Have you applied patterns on the numeric field? select pattern like $1,234.21 in Display and Edit TAB of Patterns- Numeric Field dialog box and then check.

How to allow user to enter a string including one quotation mark

I'm not sure anyone here has talked it before.
I'm quite confused, and hope someone could help me.
I have a SQL script which has a field for user entering some comments in command-line.
Whenever I tried to enter something like " it's not bad" in a statement like:
select '&&COMMENTS' from dual;
I got an error message like:
select upper('it's not bad') from dual)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
I've tried some other ways such as using INSTR first, but all failed. :(
Could anyone please give me some suggestion?
Thanks a lot.

Thank you for your response.
It is the good way.
But I'm afraid that I didn't talk about it clearly.
I just wonder if there is a way for the user to enter the quotation only once, then I write some codes for the procession.
Otherwise I've got to keep reminding them to enter it twice. :(

Don't allow user to enter transaction-code ?

hi,
is it possible to 'lock' the field in SAPGUI, where you can enter a transaction code ? i want this for a specific group of users.
best regards, Martin

Hi Martin,
Yes, you must handle this using authorizations.
Go to transaction SE93 and check for the transaction code whether there is any Authorization Object maintained.
Most T codes have S_TCODE as the authority object.
Check with basis, they would confirm all the profiles and roles which hold the authorization for this authority object + tcode combination.
By ensuring the user is not given the required auth. role, the user on entering the tcode in command box would receive an error and he would not be able to execute.
Cheers.

Dont allow user to enter more than specified number of digits/chars?

Hello
First case: I have placed a TEXT field on the form. Now i want to put the below validation,
1) User has to enter only numbers (no decimals)
2) Only 10 digits
If not i need to
1) Alert app.alert
2) Make the field either CLEARIng or considering & resetting only the first 10 digits (if user entered more than 10 digits)
2nd case: Same as above, a TEXT field, but, the data is with a DECIMAL notation, the allowed lenghts are as
2 digits as prefix to decimal
2 digits as suffix to decimal position
example, 35.88
Pls. let me knw the Java Script for these 2 cases or do you suggest me PATTERN validation if so, can i CLEAR or reset and if so, pls. let me know under which TAB(Display / Edit / Data) i need to put the PATTERN validation?

Firstly if you are only allowing numbers then the field should be a numeric field not a text field. You can use patterns to allow only whole numbers or to have 2 digits on either side of the decimal.
In regards to the number of digits you can use the len function to determine the length of the data and if it is too long give a message or clear it.

How to allow user to enter new values in a segmnt which's having a ValueSet

Hi Gurus
I am having a DFF segment where user needs the following validation. I have to check whether the value entered by user is having status number as 5 in a custom table. I can do this by Table type Validation.
But the problem here is, they should also be able to enter new values which not in that table.
How i can achieve this. Appreciate your help on this.
Thanks.
Praveen

Value sets allow only for standar list for validation, not a combobox that is what may help You to achieve what You want. You either have a restricted list or an open field to type whatever matches the format restrictions.
For what You specify, I see no reason on having a table validation is the user can after all enter new values, perhaps it's to have the table values as references and avoid duplicates. Workarounds may be:
Add an "others" value to the table, and enable another segment to enter new values and add custom validation to avoid duplicates and insert the new values to the table for future use.
Have an independent value set and add a customization to avoid duplicates (more difficult considering typos) and insert new values.

Allowing users to enter text into a web page

Hi there,
I'm not at all versed in Java, so I would like some advice on how to do the following in a web page.
Imagine you have a group of four users and they have to be able to give you a response to a question and be able to see what the others have responded.
Basically I want the users to be able to to enter text into the webpage, so that the question can be changed and also so that each person can change their reply (in a space under their name.)
It would also be acceptable if the text was from a predetermined list, ie a drop down list which has a "memory"
Any ideas would be most welcome, thanks in advance!
-Ekipero-

Hi again,
I think I didn't explain myself clearly enough.
Basically, all I need is a text box which can be edited by anyone who visits the webpage, and which once edited has a "memory" so the next person who visits the page can see what the person before wrote.
I don't know any Java but I'm sure an applet to do this can't be too difficult right?
Perhaps doing it through a text box and a Submit button which then pastes what has been written in the text box onto the page? Or perhaps the text can be chosen from a predetermined list?
Thanks in advance to all ;-)

How do I allow users to enter text into drop down menu

I have created a form with a drop down menu but I want users to be able to enter thier own text into the field if they do not see the option they want.

It sounds like you're creating the form in FormsCentral. This isn't an option in FormsCentral, but if you save the form as PDF you can edit the field in Acrobat and you'll see the option that Bernd mentioned. In order to edit the form in Acrobat, you have to removed the usage rights by opening the PDF in Acrobat and selecting: File > Save A Copy
and then open the copy.

Is there an app to allow users to enter their name on a shared iPad to track who used it?

We have a pool of iPad 2 devices running iOS 7.0.4 used in a business environment. This pool of shared iPads is distributed and shared between multiple users. I would like better accountability of each iPad as they are being taken/used by employees. Is there an app that will store locally, email, or iMessage who used the iPad? It should prompt for a name or other ID each time they turn on the iPad or after X minutes of inactivity.

We use the AirWatch MDM. It has a multi-user device check in and check out capability which is what you want. One solution for you would be to implement an MDM.

The best technique to allow user to enter text in a smart form.

I have created a smartform based on a sales order. Now in one section of the form, the user will have to type out a text or include an existing text based on certain parameters like plant (t001w-werks) which may vary for the sales orders. I want to know the best possible way to go about with this.
Thanks,
Bindu.

Hi,
Create 'Program lines' and write a condition based on plant and assign the required text to a vairable. Display the variable as text element.
Program lines:
IF ITAB-WERKS = '1001'.
      g_f_text = 'ABC'.
ELSE.
     g_f_text = 'EFG'.
ENDIF.
Text element:
   G_F_TEXT.
